20 -30 minute walk, with luggage, or a 5 minute bus ride from the train station. 3 minute walk to the Danube River. An old mansion located on a major road on the Pest side of central/tourist Budapest. Vaci Utca is a block away and the famed Chain Bridge just 10 - 15 minute walk through pedestrian areas.

The hostel is in like new condition with recent renovations completed, but still holding on too an old world charm. The staff were excellent. Helpful, courteous and genuinely interested in you and your stay. Elevator, laundry service (she was a doll, doing mine at 11 at night) kitchen, lounge, tv, computers, wifi, and key pad entry to building all made the stay very comfortable.

I first stayed in Miss Peach, five beds for about 20 euro. Being 6'1" and not skinny I found the bed a bit small and that particular dorm a little tight. Having struck a deal for a double with ensuite I changed rooms after the first night. Spacious and comfortable (king size bed) for 35 euro.

There's a bakery, currency exchange, supermarket, and bus stop at the front door. Fast food, diners, restaurants, drinking holes, bars, pubs, and clubs all within minutes of a walk. Shopping for essentials, souvenirs, or pricey gifts can all be had.

Being such a beautiful city, I'm sure there are many nice areas to stay, but for price, location, and service I will stay again.
